The Sega Genesis had a pretty long life in terms of video game consoles, spanning 8 years. One of the last games released was the game Comix Zone. Along with Vector Man, Batman and Robin and Earth Worm Jim 2 these were the last hurrah for my favorite video game console all adding a little something for future generations of games. Comix zone is a very interesting game with great graphics for the time and a very catchy sound track. The gameplay is tight and responsive, enemies are varied and enough to give you some fits but not enough to be overwhelmingly difficult. Unfortunately this game isn't too popular and kind of rare due to it being released essentially competing with the PS1, Sega's own Saturn, as well as the then upcoming N64. It's an awesome snippet of 1995 in videogame form. Highly recommend it if you like adventure style beat-em ups. Read full review

Comix Zone is a absolute classic Sega Genesis game. You play as Sketch Turner (yeah that's his real name) a comic book artist that get's sent into his own creation via a lighting bolt that also sends the villain (Mortus) of the comic book into the real world. Mortus is still made of ink and paper however, and the only way he can become real is to destroy Sketch inside the Comix Zone. Sketch has to employ a nice fighting-move set to battle all sorts of nasty creatures, eventually stopping the bad guy and saving the girl. Yeah, the story isn't bad, but it's the gameplay that's really amazing. I don't think any other game has ever went where Comix Zone did, you play INSIDE the comic panels. Mortus is constantly drawing in enemies for Sketch to fight, there's bubble dialogue between Sketch and enemies (quite humorous dialogue at times), and after clearing a panel Sketch jumps from one panel to the next. It's a pretty interesting experience. However, in my opinion the game does suffer from two hindrances. Number one: Difficulty. If you die it's game over, no extra lives or continues. If you practice or you're just really good it doesn't matter, but it still would have been nice to have some lives. Number two: Length. The game is only three episodes long. Each episode has many panels, but the game just seems shorter than it should have been. Comix Zone is by no means the greatest game ever made(that honor goes to Final Fantasy VII), but it is a great game nonetheless. It's got a good story, good controls and overall gameplay, and it can be quite humorous (my favorite is the cough cough noise the ninja guys make when they die). The bottom line is: If you own a Sega Genesis, you need to own this game.Read full review
Great graphics, gameplay and level design. One of the most unique games for Sega Genesis. If you collect Genesis games and don't have this game you might want to start looking into adding it to your collection.

This game is the perfect showcase of the great work of Mark Cerny and the rest of the Sega Technical Institute, back in the early 90s.

Fantastic game with bright hand drawn graphics, music and sound effects

The level design was ingenious moving panel to panel defeating enemies. The controls are immaculate having settings for both the traditional 3-button controller and 6-button arcade pad. A short but challenging play through. You won't be disappointed with your purchase.
